Meet Sharyn

A photo of you smiling should be because you are genuinely happy from within ~Sharyn

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" A quote made famous long before photography was invented but I find it very applicable to what I do. I look for the beauty in all things. When you hire me to photograph for you, I get to share with you how I see the world. When you trust me with your pictures, we can both see that beauty together. - Sharyn
